Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“The game is unfinished, half-baked and full of shallow poeticisms. It spends more time creating pretense than creating a coherent gaming experience. Spare yourself this nonsense.”
“I might have been willing to figure it out and get somewhere, but it is SO BLOODY slow. You have to revisit areas almost right away and the running speed is atrocious. I thought maybe the run button was broken, but it actually switches you…”
